I'm Currently looking around for new Computer parts for an upcoming build of mine. I'm stuck between Two 780's, Or a single Titan. Of course theres a large price difference, but Would it be better to stick with a Single Titan or go with Two 780's? or would it be worth the extra to go up to two 780's?

Even with a single 780, you'll get good performance, so if you play a game that only plays well with a single GPU, you'll have that power at your disposal.

Single Titan is for sore losers. it hardly performs better and its a few hundred dollars more. Okay maby it is the fastest single GPU in the world but the 780 is cheaper and its super freakin fast to.

if you have the money go with two 780s they will give you so much more power for only 300 more dollars.

780's in SLI will quickly be framebuffer limited. Way too much power for 3gb of memory when put in SLI.

Why not 2 790s (when it comes out)? That's 4 780s( I think).

the 790 may come out - and yes it would be 2 780s basically. The problem with that is less cooling and less overclocking.
